What I’ve not seen - and apologies if I’ve missed it - is your position on the EU and Single Market. Would you seek to rejoin, or make a trade deal at least, with the EU?

President Trump posted what appeared to be an A.I.-generated video on social media showing him wearing a crown and flying a jet labeled “King Trump” that dumps brown liquid on protesters. He shared the video on Saturday, the same day that protesters participated in mass “No Kings” demonstrations.

![Cartoon strip by Stephen Collins for the guardian.
[Scene is a CAR DEALERSHIP, complete with balloons etc. On the forecourt is ELON MUSK, stood next to a 2007 NISSAN QUASHQAI]
MUSK:
Uh, hi
That's right it's me uh
back selling cars
So uh, today I’m announcing the new Tesla for just $9,999!
You’re probably thinking uh, “hey that looks like a 2007 Nissan Qashqai”
That's because it's in Incognito Mode
[Musk presses a button on his mobile and the Nissan magically transforms into a Tesla Cybertruck]
MUSK:
We’ve also added a Paranoid Mode to detect judgy looks from nearby liberals
[Show screen inside vehicle - cameras detecting pedestrians’ faces and labelling them ‘Woke Mind Virus’]
MUSK:
And expanded the range of EV warning sounds for pedestrians,
[Show Car making a ‘Vroom vroom’ sound]
MUSK:
by adding: “Just Read Aloud Newspaper Columns By Journalists Who Are Sad They Own A Tesla”
[Presses button - ‘Bip’]
[Car now broadcasting a voice from its external speakers, saying]:
“My politics couldn’t be further from Musk’s. But now people look at my car and-”
MUSK:
Best of all, Threat Mode can follow live Tesla stock prices
and instantly detect if the CEO has done a seig heil or whatever
Then auto-drive you right back here to sell up!
[Show Cybertruck returning Musk to the dealership he started at]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4m3we4apbjayclzcnhwe3pfp/bafkreiavsfxixiu6hjb5whqiwmyi5dqk7uh5j7zeab2udnkt7n7iahwep4@jpeg)

![cartoon for the guardian by Stephen Collins - script as follows:
[Scene is a darkened LOFT. Amongst the boxes and junk are FOUR KNACKERED OLD FANS - three tower fans and one circular, with cracked grey plastic and buttons missing. One fan, TOWER FAN 1, is a bit taller than the others, and is addressing them]
1
TOWER FAN 1:
Right lads, get ready.
2
TOWER FAN 1:
This is our time.
3
TOWER FAN 1:
The time when we remember who we are, and why we’re here.
4
TOWER FAN 1:
We are the four crap fans in a British person’s loft,
and we are here to make absolutely no difference whatsoever.
5
TOWER FAN 1:
I know what you’re
thinking, lads:
6
TOWER FAN 1:
Surely this will be the year they finally replace us?
7
TOWER FAN 1:
Our plastic’s gone all brown... I haven’t oscillated since 2018...
8
TOWER FAN 1:
Dave here sounds like a spitfire and blows like a sad cat’s sigh…
TOWER FAN 2:
Cheers mate
9
TOWER FAN 1:
But no. These people are British, and every year, they forget the sun exists.
By the time they remember,
new fans will cost *four million pounds* on Amazon.
10
TOWER FAN 1:
So we’ll be back down there... shovelling thick air across the moaning faces of a species that cannot comprehend the concept of air conditioning, or even just closing the curtains when it’s hot out...
11
TOWER FAN 1:
...while they incessantly bang on about normally hot countries which this country is now temporarily a bit hotter than.

[The loft hatch opens and a person comes up the ladder]

You’re telling me that right wing voters that Labour was trying to appeal to voted for a right wing party anyway and left wing voters decided not to vote for Labour because they’re too right wing now? Who could have possibly predicted this.
